Intel proposed a modular laptop design for laptops and mini-PCs that focuses on the right-to-repair and sustainability.

Intel’s proposed design integrates separate components for the new LPCAMM memory standard, plus the more common Wi-Fi and SSD upgrades that can be handled with M.2 cards. Intel says that these designs offer “seamless scaling” for laptops with screen sizes from 14 to 16 inches, with options for fanless, single-fan, and dual-fan cooling.

Intel recently outlined its ideas for allowing users to upgrade and replace individual laptop components. If widely adopted, the new standards could reduce costs and e-waste.

Intel has published an article proposing a modular PC design that would improve the repairability/right-to-repair of laptops and mini PCs and reduce
